@rasta13820 lol about the toilet, but im sure they can show his attachment to lizzy without weird things like him taking a bath, it could be portrayed just fine using scenes from the book and of course austen would have never written a bath scene let alone for a man, but no need to give me lessons on what happens in the book :) it may have been a while since my last reading of it, but i know pretty well what happens
@BubblegumPopMusic13 The bath scene was also trying to portray D's realization that he was strongly attracted to L. as he noted her playing with the dog. In the book, this knowledge caused him to avoid her or to say things that contradicted his true feelings, especially to his friends at Netherfield: "Elizabeth had been at Netherfield long enough. She attracted him more than he liked.." Note D's answer to Caroline's inquiries while standing by the window-it was all lies & D is losing the battle.
@BubblegumPopMusic13 I personally would have preferred a toilet scene with Darcy seen taking a dump and banging his knees while proclaiming "I will fight this, I will fight this..."
Before their banter got heated and degenerated into name calling, Lizzy tested Darcy's wit to discern the nuances between vanity and pride. He passed the test but the distinction was lost on Caroline. 5:34 Lizzy seemed upset at Darcy's intelligence and her impertinence reared its ugly head. Did you see this?
kay, while everyone else seemed to like the bath scene (yes, colin is hot as heck we all know that) im not really digging on these random scenes of everyday life that have nothing to do with the story
@BubblegumPopMusic13 Those everyday scenes are showing the slow transformation Darcy has of just thinking Lizzy is pretty to actually respecting her. He sees in these scenes that not only does she have fine eyes, but she's also smart, witty, normal, and not at all impressed by his fortune (which is definitely a big plus, as he usually has Caroline Bingley shadowing him, and it's easy to see that she's just after his money).
Andrew Davis and Sue Birtwistle who made this adaptation wanted to show more of Darcy and more of physical side of life than in the book. Darcy is fencing, riding horses, swimming etc. I think the bath scene is one of these scenes.
LOl, I think caroline tookEliza and walked up to mr. Darcy with her, just to see if he'll walk with them. She knows he likes Eliza and that he couldn't refuse to walk with them. Darcy doesn;'t want to though. :p
A PLEASANT MAN ,WITH A SMILE -TO-DIE FOR , AND EXPRESSIVE COLIN FIRTH MAKES THE BEST ARROGANT , ALOOF AND SILENT MR. DARCY .THAT IS SUPERIOR ACTING FOR YOU ACCORDING TO ME.
I think I like Caroline Bingley. There is something charming about her outwardly bitchiness when contrasted with her inwardly affection for the great Mr. Darcy. It shows how the most despicable among us are still human and in want of love.
I think I have a crush on Caroline Bingley.
But then, who, among the women, do I not have a crush on?
Up to now, i think i prefer the 2005 version. I just imagined the characters more like the ones in the recent version. Especially Mr. Bingley and Elizabeth. ^^
Simpler, safer, healther lifestyles (If you were fortunate enough to have and keep a robust constitution) and a Bennet like income per annum, more than enough to keep body and soul together.
Everything else Phones, TV, internet, cars etc i would quite happily dump, no problem at all.
Also you would appreciate things more, work for them and earn them instead of getting anything one wants on tap today.
The other thing is values, which include love and romance, but many today...
...have grown cynical on such things and although these things still exist today in a way its nothing compared to what we used to be like, sad but true. The problem is People have lost their mystery and Innocence, and because of that were a lot poorer today.
Yes we have medicine and other things and the human condition has never been better, but there are much more important issues that we have lost down the ages.
Also the clothes, Frockcoat, waistcoat, white shirt and trousers suit me well.
@Woodlander65 From your description of the clothes you'd wear, I take it you're a man -- as a man, days of yore would appear a bit more attractive than they do to a woman, like me. My prospects in those days would've been grim: marry well or suffer a bleak existence.
I do like the high manners and the protection women of status enjoyed. Those things are gone now. But some of the values would be suffocating, like having to be nice to complete jerks like Mr. Wickham.
So far, I like this version so much more than the 2005 version. The 2005 version was actually dull at times, and this one has kept me entertained throughout. I love how it holds true to the book for the most part.
@ilikeoootoob Hear, hear! No wonder so many of the highborn ladies were hysterical neurotic messes like Mrs. Bennet! They just went completely mad with their inane, utterly boring existences!
@MrTaruq Woof, woof... literally. I wonder how the actress who played her appears when not made up to look like a ridiculous clown? The mono-brow really accentuates her beak-ish nose... the real woman MUST be taking measures to curtail such unflattering features... one would hope.
Is it just me or is Caroline Bingley secretly interested in Darcy? She is always toying with him and seeking his attentions. She shows herself as merely teasing his quietude, but deep down she wants him!
@n080di Definitely! That's why Caroline dotes on Georgiana Darcy and wants her to marry Mr. Bingley, so that it would improve her chances to marry Mr. Darcy. It's also one of the reasons why Elizabeth thinks it's so funny that Mr. Darcy is "engaged" to Miss de Bourgh, because it makes Caroline's attentions futile.
@n080di She is so confident in herself, I believe at one point in the book, she refers to herself as the future mrs. Darcy, I could be wrong, though... It is clear to me, though, that she is waiting for him to see that she is interested, though he already has and is unsure if he is interested yet or not.
I totally was thinking the same thing! Especially when she's enquiring whose "fine eyes" it is he's admiring, like she hoped they'd be hers!! She's a total flirt and always trying to get his attention as well!
@n080di Actually, yes. In the book, it's discovered that Miss Bingley is very much in want of Mr.Darcy; this is why she so encourages a marriage between Bingley and Georgiana. It would make a marriage to Fitzwilliam seem all the more plausible.
@n080di In the scene where Miss Bingley ask Eliza to take a turn around the room, she is actually seeking Mr Darcy to look at him. As before she could not get him to pay attention to him, whereas with Eliza (lizzie) she knows Darcy likes Eliza. And so that was a way to draw his attention to her :L
its so wierd, with colin firth you can tell when he's happy or pleased or whatever, cos he sort of smiles, but tbh he face doesn't change atall. like after he's spoken to lizzie, around 6:15 :) its strange, but lovely
@Rosebloom12 The bath scene is just to show Darcy falling more in love with her. Sometimes you learn more about people when they dont realize they are being watched. Here he realizes she's not just another pretty face and doesnt care about being proper--she's simply a girl having fun with the dog.
I have to say i don't like that movie very much... i mean they sticked to the book what i like a lot and the characters are good portrayed...but i did'nt get the enjoyment out of it like I had it when i read the book and watched the movie with keira...sorry..:/ ..and i don't get the feelings...
@vivascargill Lizzie likes to make friends - she's taken by surprise by Miss Bingley's sudden near-cordiality, and she hopes it may be the begginning of a change in Bingley's character. Plus, like Darcy says, she DOES know she's hot. :P
@GhostSymphony@thefancyapple - This scene was just to boost ratings...although the juxtaposition with Lizzie having fun with the dog does give very good insight into her character.
I love the cast in Lost in Austen, but I believe I like the Bingley in this version better. The sisters in LiA are better...especially Lydia and Jane. I actually like Mr. Darcy in both versions equally...although LiA is not really a "version"...just a play on the story. :)
@MsSilentia in fact england was a thanatocracy--the historian David Ogg calculated the nutritional value of the diet and could not figure out how most people survived. The Black Act increased the number of death penalty crimes to 250 (though most were deported) The Irish had it even worse!
@MsSilentia from the Greek rule of death! England was burning women alive at least until 1785 Phoebe Harris I think her name was was burned alive in 1785--there may have been one other in 1787 it is online. London was a terrible place to live (one reason why Jane hated London--always puzzled me that the Gardiners --and in Emma John Knightly--lived there, Darcy of course would have had a house there--even rich people could not drink the water!! In S@S and MPark London=hell
Thank you for the explanation. But you mean they practised witch burning? That surprises me because in the novel lord Lucas uses the epithet bewitching about Elizabeth. That makes a strange compliment if it was still a matter of death penalty. When I heard it in this adaption I wondered wether it really was used in the novel but it is!
In Sweden, you could be on trial for calling somebody witch long after the witchery burning was history.
@MsSilentia no it was for "coining" (sorry to act know it all but I taught this stuff)
people would take gold coins put them in a bag and shake the bag and collect coin dust--so the currency was debased--also theft of property (more often than murder) if Mr. Darcy had not let the Gardiners fish in "his stream" they could have been hanged. If you stole a spoon you could be hanged (or deported)
Oh the water--sewage went in the thames-- if you drank water you got dysentery!! keep in touch
@vivascargill Actually, John White, a doctor from that time, discovered that the water in the Thames, because it was so full of sewage, was also a common cause of cholera. Must've been freaky! 80
@Rosebloom12 quite right--the irony is that there was indoor plumbing of a sort for the wealthy--who could drink water from a tap! Whites connection between sewage and cholera was intuitive (as was Semmelweitz's insight that child bed fever was a iatrogenic disease in both cases because they had no notion of microbiotic sepsis. Safest thing was to drink beer--which was a reform of sorts since the alcohol killed the toxic microbes and it is a healtheir drink than Gin
@vivascargill Does that mean that a Thanatocracy is essentially rule by killing people who don't follow the right social customs? Help! I'm confused! We haven't gotten to that in Social Studies!
@Rosebloom12 No Thanotacracy (a term used by the historian Peter Linebaugh in his book "The London Hanged" refers to the sysmatization of the rule of capital through terror 1) Black act which created 250 death penalty crimes 2) an essentially domestic terror brought on by enclosure the slave trade and the work house ( John Lockes baby) where children as young as 3 were put. No Thanotocracy means killing or deportation of people who break laws protecting property--Linebaugh's book is essential
@sweetypc Actually, also unlike the implications in the book. Mrs. Bennet (though admittedly harboring a grudge against Elizabeth for being Mr. Bennet's favorite) describes her as "not half so pretty as Jane," and the general story gives a sense of their equal prettiness.

According to the book she was just taken bu surprise. Then I guess she thought it better to keep her face.
MsSilentia 1 year ago
@MsSilentia I think she likes Darcy very early in the book and is showing off but maybe just being polite
vivascargill 1 year ago
@vivascargill Lizzie likes to make friends - she's taken by surprise by Miss Bingley's sudden near-cordiality, and she hopes it may be the begginning of a change in Bingley's character. Plus, like Darcy says, she DOES know she's hot. :P

@established1995x Actually, I think they're called mutton chops. And most men had them in the 18th century - just the fashion of the time.

@thefancyapple I asked myself the same question.... this scene was kind of useless.
GhostSymphony 1 year ago
@GhostSymphony @thefancyapple - This scene was just to boost ratings...although the juxtaposition with Lizzie having fun with the dog does give very good insight into her character.

I love the cast in Lost in Austen, but I believe I like the Bingley in this version better. The sisters in LiA are better...especially Lydia and Jane. I actually like Mr. Darcy in both versions equally...although LiA is not really a "version"...just a play on the story. :)

That was only a problem for the idle riche. Most people worked hard to survive.
MsSilentia 1 year ago 2
@MsSilentia you are totally correct...I agree.
bronteteri 1 year ago
@MsSilentia in fact england was a thanatocracy--the historian David Ogg calculated the nutritional value of the diet and could not figure out how most people survived. The Black Act increased the number of death penalty crimes to 250 (though most were deported) The Irish had it even worse!

@vivascargill
Please, what is a thanatocracy?
I am not English and can not find it in the dictionary.
MsSilentia 1 year ago
@MsSilentia from the Greek rule of death! England was burning women alive at least until 1785 Phoebe Harris I think her name was was burned alive in 1785--there may have been one other in 1787 it is online. London was a terrible place to live (one reason why Jane hated London--always puzzled me that the Gardiners --and in Emma John Knightly--lived there, Darcy of course would have had a house there--even rich people could not drink the water!! In S@S and MPark London=hell

@vivascargill
Thank you for the explanation. But you mean they practised witch burning? That surprises me because in the novel lord Lucas uses the epithet bewitching about Elizabeth. That makes a strange compliment if it was still a matter of death penalty. When I heard it in this adaption I wondered wether it really was used in the novel but it is!
In Sweden, you could be on trial for calling somebody witch long after the witchery burning was history.

@MsSilentia no it was for "coining" (sorry to act know it all but I taught this stuff)
people would take gold coins put them in a bag and shake the bag and collect coin dust--so the currency was debased--also theft of property (more often than murder) if Mr. Darcy had not let the Gardiners fish in "his stream" they could have been hanged. If you stole a spoon you could be hanged (or deported)
Oh the water--sewage went in the thames-- if you drank water you got dysentery!! keep in touch

OK thanks. That makes sense.

@vivascargill Actually, John White, a doctor from that time, discovered that the water in the Thames, because it was so full of sewage, was also a common cause of cholera. Must've been freaky! 80
Rosebloom12 1 year ago
@Rosebloom12 quite right--the irony is that there was indoor plumbing of a sort for the wealthy--who could drink water from a tap! Whites connection between sewage and cholera was intuitive (as was Semmelweitz's insight that child bed fever was a iatrogenic disease in both cases because they had no notion of microbiotic sepsis. Safest thing was to drink beer--which was a reform of sorts since the alcohol killed the toxic microbes and it is a healtheir drink than Gin

@vivascargill Does that mean that a Thanatocracy is essentially rule by killing people who don't follow the right social customs? Help! I'm confused! We haven't gotten to that in Social Studies!
Rosebloom12 1 year ago
@Rosebloom12 No Thanotacracy (a term used by the historian Peter Linebaugh in his book "The London Hanged" refers to the sysmatization of the rule of capital through terror 1) Black act which created 250 death penalty crimes 2) an essentially domestic terror brought on by enclosure the slave trade and the work house ( John Lockes baby) where children as young as 3 were put. No Thanotocracy means killing or deportation of people who break laws protecting property--Linebaugh's book is essential

I know the standards of beauty were different in those days but to me Elizabeth is way prettier than Jane here ,unlike the movie .

i agree:).
bchan89 1 year ago
@sweetypc Actually, also unlike the implications in the book. Mrs. Bennet (though admittedly harboring a grudge against Elizabeth for being Mr. Bennet's favorite) describes her as "not half so pretty as Jane," and the general story gives a sense of their equal prettiness.
